*You will not be able to wear make up on the treatment areas (e.g., eyes, brows or lips, or any area treated) for 48-72 hours after your pmu treatment.
*You should not apply any make up directly onto your eyebrows for 10 days. We strongly recommend using new products to avoid potential bacterial contamination.
*Never ever use Vaseline or a similar-type (petroleum jelly) product on any area treated. It can inhibit the colour and healing stages.
*Only use the aftercare balm we recommend on the day, if in doubt please contact your technician
*Ideally you should not visit the gym for at least 24hrs but, when you resume gym visits, please wear a sweatband to protect the area treated and keep it dry.
*Avoid sun exposure, sunbeds, saunas, Jacuzzis, hot tubs or swimming for 10-14 days post treatment.
*Always use a sunblock of at least SPF50 over the area you've had treated when you're exposed to the sun, but only once the area treated has passed the healing stages. During the healing stage, avoid direct sunlight.
On eyebrows:
Ensure you keep the treated area free from water for ideally a minimum of 72 hours or up to 5 days in total! Keep the area clean and don't pick the area, then your procedure will heal safely, quickly and evenly. Only use the aftercare balm we recommend.
On the eyes after eyeliner:
Keep the treated area free from water for ideally a minimum of 24-48hrs. Keep the area clean and don't pick the skin.
Only blot the area dry with clean sterile tissue or gauze, don't rub, then your procedure will heal safely, quickly and evenly. Should your eyes feel sensitive, gritty or they feel like they need a rinse, then we recommend rinsing with sterile, cooled kettle water or saline water the next day following your procedure. Contact us for more information.
On the lips after lip-blush or lip-tint:
Ensure you keep the treated area free from water for ideally a minimum of 48hrs. Keep the skin clean and don't pick the area, this will give your skin the chance to heal safely, quickly and evenly.
Also have straws on hand for the first couple of days to avoid transferring your new lip pigment onto your coffee cup.
Have our recommended natural moisturising balms ready to soothe the skin after your treatment or as recommended. This will help maintain moisture levels. Lips can naturally become dry and flaky for some days after the procedure.
*A whiteness of the skin is normal around the treatment area, and it will subside after a few hours. It's important to remember to keep the area dry - do not allow water to come into contact with the treatment area. If the skin does get wet, only blot it dry with a piece of clean gauze, do not wipe.
*Avoiding water (as recommended) on your skin after your treatment allows your skin to feed on the pigment and permits the pigment to dry properly and scab over the skin.
*Following your treatment, you may have some numbness. This usually passes after a few hours and any swelling usually subsides after a few days.
*Some people have bruising after their treatment. This usually lasts up to a week before clearing. If your skin weeps, carefully blot the area using a piece of sterile gauze to clear any moisture. Do not rub the area.
*Only use the aftercare ointment/salve recommended by your technician. This should be used sparingly and in strict accordance with their instructions.
*Always wash your hands thoroughly before applying your aftercare ointment. Use a clean, fresh cotton bud too. E.g., if you have had a lip-blush treatment carried out, lips can feel very dry for some days later. They will become flaky over the week to 10 days following your procedure. Applying your aftercare balm will relieve this. We recommend using the aftercare balm 1-3 times per day. The overuse of your aftercare balm can reduce the retention of the pigment and affect your results so please be patient!
*Procedures generally require more than one session before they are deemed complete. This means that your final results will be visible and perfected after all sessions and healing is finished.
*There must be a gap between your first and second sessions. For eyebrows and eyeliner: 5-8 weeks, for lips: 12+ weeks.
*If you do not return within the recommended time frame of 5 - 12 weeks, higher fees for your top-up may be applied in accordance with our pricelist terms and conditions per clinic area. We do not charge for your top-up session in advance, but we expect our customers to return within the time frame recommended. Your procedure is not deemed complete until you have finished advised sessions.
